Is a valid hunting license or permit as an exception to the firearms prohibitions on nonimmigrant aliens only valid in the state in which it was issued?

No. A valid, unexpired hunting license or permit from any state within the United States satisfies the hunting license exception to the nonimmigrant alien prohibition. The hunting license or permit does not have to be from the state where the nonimmigrant alien is purchasing the firearm.
